I'm Dr. Cheryl Davison, you are listening to truth matters.

The war in heaven is a continuation of the war that has been going on for ages between God and Satan. The war breaks out in heaven during the tribulation.

This is a war between Michael God's angel and Satan see this for the future of the wars going on right now as we speak. In heaven, but the best place to learn about this is Daniel. Chapter 10 months ago.

You know we did the book of Daniel before we got into the series and I will miss Ellie got back to Daniel. Chapter 10 because I know you been following Daniel series, as well as Revelation, but chapter 10 of Daniel. He's in captivity he's made a request to God in prayer to summarize it for us.

He received no answer to his prayers for 21 days in spite of fasting morning. But on the 24th day is told by an emissary from heaven that the answer to his prayer was delayed due to the opposition from the Prince of Persia and that is in Daniel chapter 10 verse 13 and I'll just read that really quickly but the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me 21 days and held my: the chief princes, came to help me. I had been left alone there with the kings person's answer only came through as a result of the assistance furnished by Michael, one of the chief princes want to say is that you know we think allow the signs or abstractor that are theoretical. But this war is not abstract or theoretical is concrete in real evil has a personality as did his angels, and they use their personalities to influence the personalities of earthly rulers to accomplish their desires.

Just as God will one day punish earthly will rulers for their sin. He intends to punish angelic influencers say, we see that Isaiah chapter 24 verse 21 and it shall come to pass in that day that the Lord will punish on high. The host of exhausted ones and on the earth. The kings of the earth really want is on this war even exist. You know if we've established that the worst thing going on since Genesis chapter 3 what is spiritual warfare even exist if Christ defeated Satan at the cross, then why is he still the prince of this world you know that is a breach of question and when going through this in our class is real valid questions you have. Why, why was in the Senate carried out for Satan immediately, unmistakably, Satan was defeated in the crosswise you know why is he still roaming around in seems like he's in control and why is he of appointive prominence being the prince of this world, but to be honest to me. Think about it on Satan appears to have more freedom than we think you should know really when I think of Satan being defeated.

I don't know why he still able to influence the way that he does and why humans are following such prey to them even more so in these last days on, we know that Jesus died on the cross and defeated Satan but really for a long time. I really didn't get this didn't understand until I really got into studying Revelation fully understand it the best way to understand this disconnect is to remember that the cross was first and foremost a legal transaction cost was first and foremost a legal transaction on Christ appease the wrath of God and satisfies his justice with his blood as a sacrifice which was foreshadowed by the sacrificial system given with the law, but because of this, Satan was disarmed as an accuser of people before God because of the sacrifice of Christ so legally. Satan was judged and disarmed was going to truth matters with Dr. Cheryl Davis matters is a ministry project-based ministry teaching sound theology goes inside or outside of the church.
